If you're using a WATCHPAX, the unit's C drive is locked which means that you can't install anything or alter Windows.

From my understanding, to be able to shut down a server from remote you need to be either connected as a user e.g. through ssh or have an application running in the background of your WATCHPAX which listens to incoming commands. This is to protect your computer since otherwise everybody could shut down any computer in a network.

If you use SSH then what login and password?

I would not like to use another computer for this purpose , it may be busy with other tasks. Can this be done directly on watchpax?

can this be done by a command over the network     "shutdown -r" ?

Does your bios support wake on time? If so, you can set the start time here.

Then you use an autostart.txt script to run a timeline which runs for maybe 23 h 50 m and then sends the command to power the player down. The player will go down and the bios will wake it up again.

Do you mean   "time code Mode 4 " 01:00:00.000""?

Well, you can send a command to yourself from within WATCHOUT to power your device down.

powerDown          to 127.0.0.1:3039     if sent from a player to itself.

If your player supports wake on time in BIOS, it would be easy to wake it up at a certain time again.

 

The problem is not a manual reboot. I want to do a reboot every day automatically.

Is it possible to configure the device to reboot once a day at a specific time? I try through the task scheduler - after reboot the task disappears.
